During a closed-door weekly lunch meeting on Wednesday, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer faced direct questioning from House Republican lawmakers. The discussion centered on the current trade stalemate between the United States and Canada, as well as the administration's recent policy shift regarding beef import tariffs.

While the meeting was private, reports indicate that the primary point of contention for the Republican caucus is the decision to lower tariffs on beef imports. Lawmakers sought clarification on how this policy aligns with the broader trade agenda of the Trump administration. The meeting served as a forum for the administration to defend its trade strategy and address legislative concerns regarding the economic impact of these specific import adjustments. No official statement has been released regarding the outcome of the meeting or whether the administration intends to adjust its current stance on the Canadian trade dispute following the feedback from House members.
